Yes my menstruation stopped when I had the injection I December 2015 and I began to sweat like crazy. I thought I was going through menopause. I started take Evening Primrose Oil (3000mg daily) Then when I had the injection in March 2016 about a few weeks later my cycle started and suddenly the sweating stopped however the back spasms are terrible; every which way I move I am in horrific pain. The sweating came back so began the Evening Primrose Oil again and I will just take them for the rest of my life.

I am in pain everyday and mostly all day. These back spasms are so often almost with every move I make. I can't bend, put my underwear on OR even walk fast because of these back spasms that began after my 2nd back injection in March 2016. This is so bad and I need help. I am afraid to go to the ER but I am going t have to go!!! d

They (medical community) don't want to openly talk about the dirty little secret that lumbar epidural steroid injections can and often do cause leg, foot and other muscle cramping! You're not alone. Legions of folks experience cramping, especially nocturnal leg and foot cramping. Many don't even realize that the spasms are linked to their injections. The louder we yell about this problem, the harder it'll be for the medical community to ignore.

I had a cervical epidural and my two side affects are excessive sweating and severe cramping in legs, feet, fingers and stomach. So very painful. Mostly when I'm lying down. Anyone else have these issues?

So the primrose seems to help the sweating. Mine is all the time. Maybe I should try it.

I'm having very similar side effects after an epidural for total knee replacement surgery in Feb 2016...
On 27th Sept 2017, I had corrective surgery on same knee and once again. the night sweats are back with a vengeance! So unpleasant to wake up in the middle of sleep, cold and very wet!
Is there any cure? I'm desperate now! Thanks for any advice or cure. Kathy

Today I went in and got back injections, idk what it was called but they put four needles in my lower back to help my hip pain. As the doctor was doing it my legs went numb. Then the doctor said I was about to have a spasms well they ended up holding me down and I had five of them. They told me my legs might be numb well I walked out that office crying cause I was scared and they didn’t tell me if this is what I was suppose to except. Has anyone went through this? No spasms since I’ve been home but my lower right back is killing me so bad I’m in pain and my legs feel weird. Please I need answers cause I’m only 23 with three kids and they need there mommy to get better and not be hurting. Please tell me this gets better.

I have been receiving injections for several years. The first two session, I had no problem. The last session is when I experience the problem with profuse sweating. It has been three weeks. The sweating has not gone away. My doctor wants me to consider to stop these injections and go with the method of burning the nerves. This procedure will last longer.

Be patient as these side affect will pass and the increased pain relief and quality of Life is worth it. I suffer from Degenerating spine disease the results of Agent Orange.

I received my first epidural steroid injection for the discs in my neck one week ago today, and all has been going extremely well. That is, until last night. I've had mild hot flashes for about 2 years now, as I am 53 years old, and mild to moderate night sweats. One year ago I started taking Premarin for the sweating as it was getting pretty bad, and that got it all under control within weeks. Literally very rare hot flashes or sweating since. But last night I woke up literally in the process of the WORST night sweating I have EVER had. It was as if I had jumped in the pool and then immediately laid down in bed. I was soaked. Awful!! I was reading this form just now after googling to see if there were any indications that the injection caused this.
